coming home from a failed date
i decided far too late
i wanted to meet all your friends

just in case that could cement me in

i'm driving to outrace the dawn
when a cruiser's lights come on
i'm doing 85 on 84
but it's not me he's looking for

and as he circles round to chase
another motorist i get this taste
of vertigo and weightlessness
twisting the heart that bas been repossessed
